[Gnso-rpm-trademark] REMINDER - ACTION REQUESTED: Nominations/Volunteers for RPM Trademark Claims Sub Team

[Griffin Barnett]

Hi all,

I must unfortunately decline the nomination to chair or co-chair this sub-team at this time. While I appreciate the support, I don’t think I have the necessary bandwidth to chair or co-chair right now. Of course, I will continue to participate as actively as possible.

Sincerely,
Griffin

NOTES & ACTION ITEMS

Actions:

  1.  Staff to add original numbering to the agreed questions. (DONE)
  2.  Sub Team members to volunteer or nominate candidates for Sub Team leader. (ONGOING)
  3.  Sub Team members: By Wednesday, 19 December 2018, analyze whether / how the data in Rows 12-27 of the "Actual & Potential Registrants" tab answer the agreed question 1 and its sub questions (a) and (b), in the spreadsheet at: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aBw-dW2gBzvBfhUgl3u6ShWlPZt0yyNF-Vs1qmUuIjg/edit#gid=381275905. (BY 19 DEC)  See:

Question 1 (Final Charter Questions for Trademark Claims)
Is the Trademark Claims service having its intended effect? Consider the following questions specifically in the context both of a Claims Notice as well as a Notice of Registered Name:
a) Is the Trademark Claims service having its intended effect of deterring bad-faith registrations and providing Claims Notice to domain name applicants?
b) Is the Trademark Claims service having any unintended consequences, such as deterring good-faith domain name applications?

Notes:

1. Statements of Interest: no updates.

2. Select Sub Team Leader:

-- Cynthia King nominated Griffin Barnett, who is considering the nomination.
-- Kristine Dorrain is considering whether to volunteer.
-- Griffin and Kristine may consider whether to offering to Co-Lead the Sub Team.

3. Introduction to the survey analysis tool: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aBw-dW2gBzvBfhUgl3u6ShWlPZt0yyNF-Vs1qmUuIjg/edit#gid=381275905

-- First tab (far left) is the content table.
-- First column is the consolidated data from the survey results.

Example: Actual & Potential Registrant Response:
-- Column A: Questions based on the refined charter questions.
-- Column B: Actual survey question (but without the logic).
-- Some questions are asked of both actual and potential registrants, and some are related.
-- Column C: Sub Team's draft question.
-- Column D: Actual registrant response.
-- Column E: Potential registrant response
-- Column F: Findings from Analysis Group.
-- Look at the table -- there are some dividers -- noting what relates to Trademark Claims and Sunrise.

Discussion:
-- The table ties back to the agreed charter questions.  Once the analysis is done there may be information here that may be relevant to other charter questions.
-- First, go through survey results.
-- Then how or whether the survey results answer the agreed questions.
-- How the survey results may answer other survey questions.
-- Goal is to answer the charter questions.  Don't get bogged down in analyzing the data.  Focus on column A and how we get the answers.
-- Question: What is in the tabs?  That is the raw data/detailed responses.

4. Begin survey analysis:

Second tab: Actual & Potential Registrants
Column A: (reading the questions)

Discussion:
-- Based on the results it seems pretty clear that only half of the people who were not actual registrants answered the question about the notice correctly.  Effectiveness and claims notice.
-- Note that some respondents seem to have been deterred (worried).
-- Claims notice: overarching question -- background question -- how much deterrence is acceptable?
-- #4/#5: That is what row 14 is answering.  Is the notice intimidating, not the service.
-- Look at the survey analysis group outside of ICANN -- the meaning what the notice, half of the answers the distractor answers (wrong/unhelpful).  Didn't understand the notice.
-- Proposal: Take question 1, sub parts a and b, study those questions, and compare against the 3 tabs.
